I thought you had said in another thread that your weekly income was £600?

I have already given a full explanation elsewhere. It all depends on how you view income net or gross

I thought I had read him and his wife were carers for each other. How can she care for him if she needs all that equipment. I am very puzzled about benefits.

Yes the law does allow this even though both may well be each seriously disabled. It's how the system works. Talking to each other constitutes care.

Why?? What would that achieve? I'm sick you know - I receive ESA and am in the Support Group.
Yes the £231.45 has caused a bit of a dent in our money, but I believe that you have to suffer a bit to get through it.

oh my goodness, its even worse than I thought having gone from £80 to £231, it must be so stressful, never mind you have your large inheritance to look forward to :beer:

Clearly she is not in a physical position to provide care to anyone, so it must be psychological care she provides for you. Are you receiving benefits for a mental illness?

If what you are saying is that the £600 that you claim you receive each month is Gross rather than Net, you might want to make that very clear in other threads you love to come and boost about as you surely wouldn't want to mislead other posters seeking information.

C'mon Fbaby, reading his other posts and the 20,000 AE's, what do you think?
